Windowblinds and the new Edge Chrome Browser

Hello,

Sorry to hear you are having issues. I have not tried New edge Chrome browser, but from my experience with Chrome and WB, it always have problem with WB and for me I always exclude Chrome from WB.

Basj,

Hello basj

I was hoping.

Perhaps in the future.

Thanks

Microsoft have so far inherited the custom drawn titlebar from Chrome, but left out the option to disable it.

Therefore MS Edge Chromium edition will not currently skin the titlebar with WB.

Currently Edge Chromium 83 can be skinned. It works fine with this command-line parameter in Microsoft Edge's shortcut: shortcut Properties > Target >

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft\Edge\Application\msedge.exe" --disable-windows10-custom-titlebar

And i'm glad it works, because I so much hate the sharp, angular corners design - and love WindowBlinds because it removes most of it.

1E3F0D this direction to skin Edge Chromium works perfect.

Thanks for posting!

You're welcome ! The tip was given here by Stardock for Chrome, as it has the same base than Edge, and the Chromium command-line switches are supposed to work for it,  I wanted to check by myself after reading this thread.   

I have just installed Edge on Windows 7 and have the same problem.
The title bar is OK on Chrome though.

The fix is working for me!
